Digital Addiction

I see people taking pictures of other people taking videos
Of other people that are posting on Facebook
And then tweeting about it
And then sending that out on instagram
Then they put it on their blog
It’s a culture of me me me me me
But I’m also wondering about you and you and you too
That’s why I’m stalking you online
Reading everything I can find
Cause when I’m alone I’m always reaching for my phone
When I’m alone I’m always reaching for my phone
Digital addiction (I’m textin’ while I’m driving)
Digital addiction ( checking my feed before I get out of bed)
Digital addiction (‘cause I’m worried about the messages I haven’t read)
Digital addiction (It’s time to turn it so)
Turn it off now, turn it turn it off now
Turn it off now, turn it turn it off
Our technology was supposed to set us free
But instead it’s got us trapped like prisoners behind a screen
And I wonder what does it mean that all my dreams are in pixels
They’re in RGB pixels
Maybe I’ve got a
Digital addiction (when I’m texting while we’re driving…I know it’s dangerous and illegal)
Digital addiction (checking my feed before I get out of bed…just can’t help it)
Digital addiction (because I'm worried about the messages I haven’t read)
Digital addiction (I think it's time to turn it off so)
Turn it off now, turn it turn it off now
Turn it off now, turn it turn it off
Alright now 65% of statistics are made up on the spot,
But 25% of the time those are true
So I've got a little statistic for you
Over 80% of mobile phones have fecal matter on them
Think about that the next time you get a call and you raise it up to your face
And think about that the next time you're sitting on the toilet
Doing your work email and pooping
It’s time to recognize the power of connectivity
Learn to use it more creatively than watching cat videos on the Internet all day
Because we can find solutions to all the problems and pollution
But we’ve got to change our paradigm
And I think that it's about time to break free of our
Digital addiction (while we’re texting while we’re driving…don’t do it it could kill you )
Digital addiction (checking the feed before we get out of bed…just can’t help it)
Digital addiction (cause worried about our messages you haven’t read)
Digital addiction (sleeping’ with the phone underneath our head)
Digital addiction (doin’ the work email on the toilet)
Digital addiction (and answering the phone while we’re having sex…don’t do that!)
Digital addiction (It’s time to turn it off so)
Turn it off now, turn it turn it off now
Turn it off now, turn it turn it off

Dreams are like Ouroboros
Mouth to tail I'm chasing it
From the verse into the chorus
North and South yeah the stage is lit
The page it spins pen in my hand
I'm ready to lace this ish with amazingness so fresh
When you take it in fill you with that cadence that I call that old soul nutrition
Got a whole new vision when you open listen
You the author visionary and of course the playwright
So we follow crescent moon until consumed into the daylight
Cycles of the heart spark the heart and follow sage light
Eyes on the horizon vibin zion into plain sight
Free you
Down by the riverbed
Don’t lose
To the fight of it all
Outspoke
Come down now below the roots
To send us a message that love is the core of it all
Morpheus on the mic got a red and blue pill
Adventures that endless choose the path and let the groove fill
Let the groove feel real we shaken and move still to the vibration basin and makin it boom ill like
The groove it fills you powerful but keeping you so still making ill fields it feels real the blue one or the red pill
Yeah neo on the mic keeping it light and weightless we rocking it top notch shapeshifting through the matrix
Spacious a need to know basis spaceships lifting off a the top of the caged fist go
The matrix you can see it if you want it or you don’t running timelines through rhyme times the rabbit down the hole
Oracle on the mic exploring the world wide supported from the fortress restoring it with more vibes
More vibes on the frequency we can see more tribes third eye chakra open and vocalists flow ties
There’ll be more things with feeling it’s bringing me real things yes I am manifesting powerful blessings
Full circle on the mic write a page into this history we agents of the light diving straight into the mystery
Mystify and listen we projecting intentions deep instantly we finishing physically what the visions be
The history is misery you don’t see it you ain’t listenin so let me speak i’m underneath the lights and it’s glistening
Free you
Down by the riverbed
Don’t lose
To the fight of it all
Outspoke
Come down now below the roots
To send us a message that love is the core of it all
To send us a message that love is the core of it all
To send us a message that love is the core of it all
Life’s what we make in it
So I be shaping life live with a mission and vision
And never label lies
But i pay the price stay sharp like razor knives
Keep adjacent spaces vacant so racing through crazy nights
Patronize personification stay alive make a prize and take it
Now lace it up with the ancient vibes
Space and time evaded and never pay the fines
Lyrical assassins we blasting off to create the rhymes

Gunna run fast now
Gunna run fast now
Uh uh
Six fifty flow with itty bitty licorice
Straight work killer assessing it out the ignorance
Dig down one of my rhymes like when I hit that shit
I’m classified as more than a nine to be figured this
We got intelligence logic and benevolence
Touching down for a minute just to tell you what it is
Empowering the people that seem to be your biz
These days my mind been acting hella funny funny funny
Like my head’s in nature your crack in my skull all runny runny runny
We’ve been focused on the wrong shit like popularity and money money money
Been brewing up some cloudy thoughts but outside the sky is sunny
Round and round and round
Round and round we go
Round and round we go
Not stopping for your show
I’m going to play a piece of the puzzle
I’m a bark bark bark no muzzle
I’m a play this hooooo diggie diggie like a shovel
You know I mean make that tunnel
Underground for the whole damn sound
If you feel it in the heart then you moving all around
I’m talking b cavity all up in the never heard of me
Uh uh uh
These days my mind been acting hella funny funny funny
Like my head’s in nature your crack in my skull all runny runny runny
We’ve been focused on the wrong shit like popularity and money money money
Been brewing up some cloudy thoughts but outside the sky is sunny

Let Your Light Shine

I ain’t afraid of the future ‘cause I know we’ll survive
when we work together the culture will thrive
the media’s controlling us with their scare tactics
problems everywhere and the things are getting drastic
there’s a hole in the ozone and the ocean’s full of plastic
the pipelines are leaking and the oil is peaking
Climate catastrophes making these disasters
While we’re all slaves for our corporate masters
People 'round the world living in fear
But things are often not what they appear
We the people we are strong
We the people with the power of our song
We’re not afraid to let our light shine
We’re not afraid to let our light shine bright
Through the darkest of night
It seems like the forces of darkness are closing around us
The people are losing their trust in the government
And our politicians are bent and crooked as ever
The current flavor is fascist pie
Slow motion race riot stinks of genocide
And it makes me wanna hide makes me wanna cry
Curl up and die
But I got to keep my head up
Never give up on hope
Even if it’s hard to cope with the constant stream of bad news
Giving me the blues
But it’s up to me to choose
To hide in the dark or to shine my light bright
We the people we are strong
We the people with the power of our song
We’re not afraid to let our light shine
We’re not afraid to let our light shine bright
Through the darkest of night
Don’t be afraid to let your light shine
Dont hide it!
Don’t be afraid to let your light shine
Dont hide it!
We the people we are strong
We the people with the power of our song
We’re not afraid to let our light shine
We’re not afraid to let our light shine bright
Through the darkest of night
I know you wanna make this world better (for the one’s to come)
I know you wanna make this world better (for the children)
I know you wanna make this world better (for all life)
I know you wanna make this world better (for the birds and the bees and the flowers and the trees)
I know you wanna make this world better
[Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us. We are all meant to shine as children do. It’s not just in some of us. It’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. Quote by Marianne Williamson]

Cause everything happens exactly as it’s supposed to
If you really know me then you know that I know you
You me and we coming from the same tree
Roots in the ground and you hoppin with my homies
Get down with it oooh
Grew up from the ground in it ooooh
Not makin sense but we all come around with it
That’s all I really know.
Know what I know know what I don’t
All I really know is I don’t got a coat and it’s cold outside
Cold world cold eye lookin out don’t close your eyes
Don’t close don’t close your eyes
Keep ‘em wide open see all the youth
Keep ‘em wide open I’ll be comin’ with the band men
Jumpin’ off the wagon
Holdin’ to me hand
Hey hey
Hey hey
Round and round like a carousel do
All I really know is I paint the sky blue
Cause everything happens exactly as it’s supposed to
If you really know me then you know that I know you
You me and we coming from the same tree
Roots in the ground and you hoppin with my homies
Unleash the dragon
Round all the time
If you really know me then my soul rewinds
I’m back to the future hoppin’ through the past
If you really lookin’ for it then you walkin’ last
No we all walk together same past
Steppin’ with my foot then my breath come last
Breathe in and out do that i doubt nothing
I doubt nothing
Cause everything happens exactly as it’s supposed to
You me and we coming from the same tree
Roots in the ground and you hoppin with my homies
Homie Homemade
Homie you my homie
Home made homies eatin’ no baloney
All I really know is that I’m workin’ on my throne see?
You’s a queen
Homemade homies eatin’ no baloney no no
Homemade homies we don’t eat baloney
Na na na na no fake 'round here no
Na na na na no fake
Na na na na no fake 'round here no
Na na na na no fake
Fake fake no no no [ hey hey hey]
Fake fake no no no
Barefoot runnin’ through the sands of time
Walkin’ we press rewind
Spinnin’ around my mind
The sun just goes around in circles
Looking for that old work home
What’s the way home?
Ooooo shubidibah

Doo doo

Yeah CelloJoe Rabe
Connected through the ethers…through your speakers
One time for the mind body spirt and soul let’s go yeah
Uh
To all my people all my people round the world yah uh yup yeah
To all my people all my people round the world yah uh yup check let’s go
Yeah I know we all one family all up on this globe spinnin
We on a long road dancing to a rogue rhythm
And when this road’s splittin lookin like a difference but there is no difference
Music is music unless the soul’s missin
So i’m a put one into every single note and go that gold distance
That’s all the way I hope you flow with it.
Life is either for gettin' or for givin’
So it’s through this track i give you all I got to get your toes kickin’
And what i’m speakin’ is simply just an old mission
Unity the part of the history books we’re omittin’
We all connected like the roots of the forest grow with them
From the cities to the mountains where the snow glistens
And every single race culture and creed are all leaves upon a family tree
It’s all of those leaves that help me breathe
And until all my people are free
I’m a keep on making music through the energy of peace
Yeah
Said everything is gunna be alright yeah
Said everything is gunna be alright
Like Mr Marley said yeah it’s gunna be alright I ain’t got the timeline but I got the sight
Said every little thing is gunna be alright yeah
Said everything is gunna be alright
Like mr marley said yeah it’s gunna be alright I ain’t got the timeline but I got the sight
Said every little thing is gunna be alright yeah
Said everything is gunna be alright
Like mr marley said yeah it’s gunna be alright I ain’t got the timeline but I got the sight
Yeah I know I ain’t crazy with this vision in this head of mine
I set the vibe I ain’t ahead of my time
I follow footsteps to my people
Who took the time to combine a heart and mind of action
Digging deep to find a little passion
But the bottom line is often dollar signs
We gotta take off the mask and see their eyes and just ask
Are you ready for a revolution?
The first step to solution
Realize separation’s illusion
Step back and see the world in communion
See the world’s already spinnin we already in movement
So let’s focus our thoughts and get to it
Every act counts
For me I’m startin with this medicine in music yeah
This is for the soul rebels movers and shakers
Mountain to the ghettos
Bay area to jamaica
It takes a village to raise a child
So we need to wake up
So we got a world where our children can wake up
Yeah
Said everything is gunna be alright yeah
Said everything is gunna be alright
Like Mr Marley said yeah it’s gunna be alright I ain’t got the timeline but I got the sight
Said every little thing is gunna be alright yeah
Said everything is gunna be alright
Like mr marley said yeah it’s gunna be alright I ain’t got the timeline but I got the sight
Said every little thing is gunna be alright yeah
Said everything is gunna be alright
Like mr marley said yeah it’s gunna be alright I ain’t got the timeline but I got the sight

Sun gunna fall on my window sill
Yeah I’m lookin’ for the puzzle pieces all still
Scattered it when my mind went ill
But i realized I was whole I was healed so...
I don’t need to go and look around
Everything that I need I found
All up inside the middle of me
Sit down in my favorite tree and
Go we go we goin’ to climb it
Go we go we go to climb
We goin’ to climb it
I go I go I go
I’m goin’ to go where no man’s ever been before
We’re goin’ to go back down and we look for more o-oh
So what kind of tree do you wanna be?
Goin’ to grow real tall gunna see what you see
Well I don’t know - oh oh
But that’s half the fun of it
half the fun of it
That’s half the fun of it
That’s half the fun of it
Someone asked me do you wanna know
All the secrets all the puzzle pieces where they go
I would say just look at what I’ve already made
Way it way it yo this mosaic
All I know I’m scattered in the pieces of the puzzle spray it
Oh just like a sprinkler do yo I’m the time wrinkler dude oh
Split it in half double vertebrae if you know we get it poppin’
You don’t even heard of me
Cause we all just the same damn voice and we’ve only got one choice
That’s love or fear
Love or fear
Love or fear
Love or fear
That’s half the fun of it
That’s half the fun of it
That’s half the fun of it
Love or fear
Love or fear
Oh oh

Let’s go and run with it
That’s half the fun of it
Oh

Look up in the sky see what you gunna see
Just let your fruits be and fall to the ground
Fall just fall down to the ground
Oh oh oh
Love or fear
Love or fear

Love or fear
On no not the second one

So I’m a shine bright
You ain’t turnin’ off this light

What if it was all about the...
What if it was all about the way that you drop it low
What about if it was the way you don’t know what you don’t know
Go where you haven’t gone before
What if it was all about the way the waves rip
What about the head from the tip tip top to the toe
The way CelloJoe get ya bouncin’ in the back and you know that we know
That we are all here for one thing whatchu gunna bring bring to the table
Get loose when I look up at the sun
The sun equals one
One around the circle and we never gunna run
‘cause we always just dancin’
What if it was all about the...
What if it was all about the…
What if it was all about the way that we treat each other
How we love not how we beat each other
How we say bye and how we greet each other
We got the locks and all the keys together
One day man we’ll finally meet each other
we’ll finally meet each other finally meet each other
Stare at a stranger nameless in your book
Complete unknown take a second look
One thing is right but correct me if I’m wrong
One heartbeat makes a rhythm and two heartbeats make a song
Make a song
What if it was all about the oh
What if it was all about the love man
What if it was what if it was all about the whoa
What if it was all about the love man
What if it was all about the love
What if it was all about the love
How hard you could love
How hard you could trust
What if it was all about the about the
What if it was all
What if it was all about the about the
What if it was all
What if it was all just 'bout a dream?
What if it was all not what it seemed?
Uh huh uh huh Uh huh uh huh
What if it was all about the way that we treat each other
How we say bye and how we greet each other
What words and food we feed each other?
We got the locks and all the keys together
One day man we’ll finally meet each other
How will we greet each other
We got the locks and all the keys together
We got the locks and all the keys together
We got the locks and all the keys together
We got the locks and all the keys together
What if it was all about
no doubt no doubt no doubt
What if it was all about
